FIRST,
A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE SPREAD OF ISLAM

Muhammad's Sword,
By Uri
Avnery
Pope Benedict XVI in the service of George W. Bush

09/24/06 "Information Clearing
House" -- -- Since the days when Roman emperors threw
Christians to the lions, the relations between the emperors and the
heads of the church have undergone many changes.

Constantine the Great, who became emperor in the year 306 - exactly 1700
years ago - encouraged the practice of Christianity in the empire, which
included Palestine. Centuries later, the church split into an Eastern
(Orthodox) and a Western (Catholic) part. In the West, the Bishop of
Rome, who acquired the title of Pope, demanded that the emperor accept
his superiority.

The struggle between the emperors and the popes played a central role in
European history and divided the peoples. It knew ups and downs. Some
emperors dismissed or expelled a pope, some popes dismissed or
excommunicated an emperor. One of the emperors, Henry IV, "walked to
Canossa", standing for three days barefoot in the snow in front of the
Pope's castle, until the Pope deigned to annul his excommunication.

But there were times when emperors and popes lived in peace with each
other. We are witnessing such a period today. Between the present Pope,
Benedict XVI, and the present emperor, George Bush II, there exists a
wonderful harmony. Last week's speech by the Pope, which aroused a
worldwide storm, went well with Bush's crusade against "Islamofascism",
in the context of the "clash of civilizations".

In his lecture at a German university, the 265th Pope described what he
sees as a huge difference between Christianity and Islam: while
Christianity is based on reason, Islam denies it. While Christians see
the logic of God's actions, Muslims deny that there is any such logic in
the actions of Allah.

As a Jewish atheist, I do not intend to enter the fray of this debate.
It is much beyond my humble abilities to understand the logic of the
Pope. But I cannot overlook one passage, which concerns me too, as an
Israeli living near the fault-line of this "war of civilizations".

In order to prove the lack of reason in Islam, the Pope asserts that the
Prophet Muhammad ordered his followers to spread their religion by the
sword. According to the Pope, that is unreasonable, because faith is
born of the soul, not of the body. How can the sword influence the soul?

To support his case, the Pope quoted - of all people - a Byzantine
emperor, who belonged, of course, to the competing Eastern Church. At
the end of the 14th century, Emperor Manuel II Palaeologus told of a
debate he had - or so he said (its occurrence is in doubt) - with an
unnamed Persian Muslim scholar. In the heat of the argument, the emperor
(according to himself) flung the following words at his adversary:

Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find
things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword
the faith he preached.

These words give rise to three questions: (a) Why did the Emperor say
them? (b) Are they true? (c) Why did the present Pope quote them?

When Manuel II wrote his treatise, he was the head of a dying empire. He
assumed power in 1391, when only a few provinces of the once illustrious
empire remained. These, too, were already under Turkish threat.

At that point in time, the Ottoman Turks had reached the banks of the
Danube. They had conquered Bulgaria and the north of Greece, and had
twice defeated relieving armies sent by Europe to save the Eastern
Empire. On 29 May 1453, only a few years after Manuel's death, his
capital, Constantinople (the present Istanbul), fell to the Turks,
putting an end to the empire that had lasted for more than a thousand
years.

During his reign, Manuel made the rounds of the capitals of Europe in an
attempt to drum up support. He promised to reunite the church. There is
no doubt that he wrote his religious treatise in order to incite the
Christian countries against the Turks and convince them to start a new
crusade. The aim was practical, theology was serving politics.

In this sense, the quote serves exactly the requirements of the present
Emperor, George Bush II. He, too, wants to unite the Christian world
against the mainly Muslim "Axis of Evil". Moreover, the Turks are again
knocking on the doors of Europe, this time peacefully. It is well known
that the Pope supports the forces that object to the entry of Turkey
into the European Union.

Is there any truth in Manuel's argument?

The pope himself threw in a word of caution. As a serious and renowned
theologian, he could not afford to falsify written texts. Therefore, he
admitted that the Qur'an specifically forbade the spreading of the faith
by force. He quoted the second Sura, Verse 256 (strangely fallible, for
a pope, he meant Verse 257) which says: "There must be no coercion in
matters of faith."

How can one ignore such an unequivocal statement? The Pope simply argues
that this commandment was laid down by the Prophet when he was at the
beginning of his career, still weak and powerless, but that later on he
ordered the use of the sword in the service of the faith. Such an order
does not exist in the Qur'an. True, Muhammad called for the use of the
sword in his war against opposing tribes - Christian, Jewish and others
- in Arabia, when he was building his state. But that was a political
act, not a religious one; basically a fight for territory, not for the
spreading of the faith.

Jesus said: "You will recognize them by their fruits." The treatment of
other religions by Islam must be judged by a simple test: how did the
Muslim rulers behave for more than a thousand years, when they had the
power to "spread the faith by the sword"?

Well, they just did not.

For many centuries, the Muslims ruled Greece. Did the Greeks become
Muslims? Did anyone even try to Islamize them? On the contrary,
Christian Greeks held the highest positions in the Ottoman
administration. The Bulgarians, Serbs, Romanians, Hungarians and other
European nations lived at one time or another under Ottoman rule and
clung to their Christian faith. Nobody compelled them to become Muslims
and all of them remained devoutly Christian.

True, the Albanians did convert to Islam, and so did the Bosniaks. But
nobody argues that they did this under duress. They adopted Islam in
order to become favourites of the government and enjoy the fruits.

In 1099, the Crusaders conquered Jerusalem and massacred its Muslim and
Jewish inhabitants indiscriminately, in the name of the gentle Jesus. At
that time, 400 years into the occupation of Palestine by the Muslims,
Christians were still the majority in the country. Throughout this long
period, no effort was made to impose Islam on them. Only after the
expulsion of the Crusaders from the country, did the majority of the
inhabitants start to adopt the Arabic language and the Muslim faith -
and they were the forefathers of most of today's Palestinians.

There no evidence whatsoever of any attempt to impose Islam on the Jews.
As is well known, under Muslim rule the Jews of Spain enjoyed a bloom
the like of which the Jews did not enjoy anywhere else until almost our
time. Poets like Yehuda Halevy wrote in Arabic, as did the great
Maimonides. In Muslim Spain, Jews were ministers, poets, scientists. In
Muslim Toledo, Christian, Jewish and Muslim scholars worked together and
translated the ancient Greek philosophical and scientific texts. That
was, indeed, the Golden Age. How would this have been possible, had the
Prophet decreed the "spreading of the faith by the sword"?

What happened afterwards is even more telling. When the Catholics
reconquered Spain from the Muslims, they instituted a reign of religious
terror. The Jews and the Muslims were presented with a cruel choice: to
become Christians, to be massacred or to leave. And where did the
hundreds of thousand of Jews, who refused to abandon their faith,
escape? Almost all of them were received with open arms in the Muslim
countries. The Sephardi ("Spanish") Jews settled all over the Muslim
world, from Morocco in the west to Iraq in the east, from Bulgaria (then
part of the Ottoman Empire) in the north to Sudan in the south. Nowhere
were they persecuted. They knew nothing like the tortures of the
Inquisition, the flames of the auto-da-fe, the pogroms, the terrible
mass-expulsions that took place in almost all Christian countries, up to
the Holocaust.

Why? Because Islam expressly prohibited any persecution of the "peoples
of the book". In Islamic society, a special place was reserved for Jews
and Christians. They did not enjoy completely equal rights, but almost.
They had to pay a special poll tax, but were exempted from military
service - a trade-off that was quite welcome to many Jews. It has been
said that Muslim rulers frowned upon any attempt to convert Jews to
Islam even by gentle persuasion - because it entailed the loss of taxes.

Every honest Jew who knows the history of his people cannot but feel a
deep sense of gratitude to Islam, which has protected the Jews for fifty
generations, while the Christian world persecuted the Jews and tried
many times "by the sword" to get them to abandon their faith.

The story about "spreading the faith by the sword" is an evil legend,
one of the myths that grew up in Europe during the great wars against
the Muslims - the reconquista of Spain by the Christians, the Crusades
and the repulsion of the Turks, who almost conquered Vienna. I suspect
that the German Pope, too, honestly believes in these fables. That means
that the leader of the Catholic world, who is a Christian theologian in
his own right, did not make the effort to study the history of other
religions.

Why did he utter these words in public? And why now?

There is no escape from viewing them against the background of the new
Crusade of Bush and his evangelist supporters, with his slogans of "Islamofascism"
and the "global war on terror" - when "terrorism" has become a synonym
for Muslims. For Bush's handlers, this is a cynical attempt to justify
the domination of the world's oil resources. Not for the first time in
history, a religious robe is spread to cover the nakedness of economic
interests; not for the first time, a robbers' expedition becomes a
Crusade.

The speech of the Pope blends into this effort. Who can foretell the
dire consequences?

What Ideology is Likely Driving the War
Machine – The Quran or the Kabbalah?

"What about the Kabbalah’s description of Gentiles as animals who must
be slaughtered before “order” can be restored? That concept is not a
minority opinion but fundamental to how Kabbalah structures God, Israel,
and the universe. Thus, we can only assume it provides much of the
motivation for the racist laws, war crimes, and homicidal agenda of the
state of Israel today. After all, Orthodox, Kabbalah-venerating Judaism
is the official position of the government, religious hierarchy, and
military of Israel."hmmm ....... is that
why it's so easy to slaughter so many innocents - to essentially be
devoid of conscience? Conscience is what makes us wise, courageous,
human and right!

Balancing the Global
Scales of Justice:

Appropriate Islamic response:"In the eyes
of my Lord all people are equal" -- The Prophet of Islam

The
American response:We hold
these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that
they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that
among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

The
Planetization response:
Planetization sings the song of EQUALITY FOR ALL ON THE PLANET -- NO
WARS NECESSARY -- simply choose it!

In the aftermath
of Israel’s blitz of Lebanon, banners were lifted by pro-Hezbollah youth
to the TV media. They labeled Lebanese wreckage as: “Made in America.”

It’s true:
Israel’s F-16s, cluster bombs, and arms were supplied by America. But
the intention to use them was created deep in the heart of Talmudic
Judaism—in the semi-secret “Kabbalah."

What is Kabbalah?
Today, "Kabbalah" makes most think of popstars like Madonna or Britney
Spears who dabble in the occult. Actually, Kabbalah has no real
relevance to Gentiles. It is an occult theology and practice centering
around the superiority of Jews and their predestined purpose to dominate
society.

While
conservatives focus on the dark side of Islam, they take it for granted
that Judaism is a benign religion of peace and tolerance. But if we are
brave enough to take a closer look, we find a very, very different
reality. Deep in the heart of Judaism’s sacred texts lie a set of
twisted and chilling beliefs.

Two “Gods” in Judaism

In the Old
Testament, God is a conscious moral being. He has perfect knowledge of
right and wrong, and He judges us according to our free moral choices.

Yet when the Jews
were carried to distant Babylon in 587 BC by Nebuchadnezzar, they found
a very different god. They discovered the pantheistic god of the east—a
world force who is “great” not because he loves or is good, but because
of his pervasive power everywhere.

The ancient
Pharisees liked this “god” because he didn’t disapprove of their
perversion of Jehovah’s laws. The Pharisees of Babylon created an
elaborate secret theology for the Jews called “Kabbalah.”

Eminent
Christian-Jewish historian Alfred Eidersheim comments, “It is undeniable
that already at the time of Jesus Christ, there existed an assemblage of
doctrines and speculations that were carefully concealed from the
multitude. They were not even revealed to ordinary scholars…This kind
bore the name of Kabbala…” 1

In Kabbalist
theology, “God,” called the “En Sof,” is beyond rational description. He
consists of the most exalted, rarified light. As his wavelengths
descend, they manifest themselves, according to Jewish Kabbalists, as a
most wonderful phenomenon: the Jewish people. Jews, being semi-divine,
are the rational, physical manifestations of God’s presence in the
universe. They are as indispensable to the existence of the universe as
a proton is to an atom.

Evil Gentiles

Unfortunately,
the wavelengths of God continue to descend, becoming so degenerate that
they produce demons and—most troubling to Israel— satanic creatures
called “Kliphoth,” or Gentiles. The rabbinic treatise, “Sepher Or
Israel, 117,” recommends: “Take the life of the Klipoth and kill them,
and you will please God the same as one who offers incense to Him.”
2

The Zohar,
meaning “brightness” or “light,” is the five-volume repository of
Kabbalistic lore and mystic speculation. It explains, “… ‘living soul’
refers to Israel who have holy, living souls from above, and ‘cattle’
and ‘creeping thing’ and ‘beast of the earth’ to the other peoples who
are not ‘living soul.’…” 3

Bad Vibrations

According to the
Zohar, the great tragedy of this world is that the Kliphoth or Gentiles
perpetually unsettle the higher levels with their evil imbalance. As
long as the Kliphoth continue to exist in their present state of
discord, God and His universe will be disordered as well.

In this concept
we find a rationale for the Kabbalists’ hatred of Gentiles. Christ said,
“The time cometh that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God
service.” (John 16:2) The Kabbalist sees the extermination of the
Gentile as a necessary process toward restoring order in the universe.
He teaches that the Gentile is a form of demon who should be treated
with no more genuine benevolence than one would treat Satan himself.

Gentiles, whom
the Zohar describes as “Amalekites,” have an intrinsic tendency to
disorder the world, causing it to revert to its primordial state of
chaos (tohu) and emptiness (bohu).

“All of these
[Gentiles] tend to bring the world back to the state of tohu and bohu,
and they caused the destruction of the temple. But as “tohu” and “bohu”
gave place to the light, so, when God reveals Himself, they will be
wiped off the earth. But, withal, redemption will not be complete until
Amalek will be exterminated.” 4

“The People of
the Earth are idolaters, and it has been written about them: Let them be
wiped off the face of the earth.” 5

Long-Suffering Israel

Until the blessed
day when the Gentiles are exterminated, the Zohar says, Israel must
remain in a withered, blighted condition. This is because Gentiles, by
the confusion they stir up in the lower levels, prevent the blessings of
the Shekina in the upper levels from adequately descending upon Israel.

Someday, however,
things will be as they were meant and “man” (meaning Israel) will be
given the preeminence he was created to enjoy. Then, says the Kabbalah,
“man should be unique and ruler over all.” 6

How will “man”
conquer the world?

“Rabbi Jehuda
said to him Rabbi Chezkia: “He is to be praised who is able to free
himself from the enemies of Israel, and the just are much to be praised
who get free from them and fight against them.” Rabbi Chezkia asked,
“How must we fight against them?” Rabbi Jehuda said, “By wise counsel
thou shalt war against them.” (Proverbs 24:6) “By what kind of war?”
“The kind of war that every son of man must war against his enemies.
Which Jacob used against Esau—by deceit and trickery wherever possible.
They must be fought against without ceasing, until proper order be
restored. Thus it is with satisfaction that I say we should free
ourselves from them, and rule over them.”” 7

The intention of
this passage is clear: world domination.

World Domination

When Jews control
the planet, Kabbalists believe, God’s power will be manifest through the
Messiah. “The Holy One, blessed be He, will display His force, and
exterminate them [Gentiles] from the world.” 8

In that day,
“happy will be the lot of Israel, whom the Holy One, blessed be He, has
chosen from amongst the Goyim of whom the Scriptures say: “Their work is
vanity, it is an illusion at which we must laugh; they will perish when
God visits them in his wrath.” At the moment when the Holy One, blessed
be He, will exterminate all the Goyim of the world, Israel alone will
subsist even as it is written: “The Lord alone will appear great on that
day.”” 9

Until then, the
Kabbalah has a solemn mission: “It is certain that our captivity will
last until the princes of the Gentiles who worship idols are destroyed.”
10

To hasten the end
of Israel’s captivity, Kabbalah recommends extermination of Gentiles,
not simply as a necessity, but as the highest religious duty. Zohar II
explains the principles of redemption of the firstborn of an ass by
offering a lamb: “The ass means non-Jew, who is to be redeemed by the
offering of a lamb, which is the dispersed sheep of Israel. But if he
refuses to be redeemed, then break his skull…They should be taken out of
the book of the living…” 11

“In the palaces
of the fourth heaven are those who lamented over Sion and Jerusalem and
all those who destroyed idolatrous nations…and those who killed off
people who worshipped idols are clothed in purple garments so that they
may be recognized and honored.” 12

To the Kabbalist,
even the quaint and commonplace liturgy of the synagogue has a deep,
far-reaching significance: “The feast of tabernacles is the period when
Israel triumphs over the other peoples of the world. That is why during
this feast we seize the loulab and carry it as a trophy to show that we
have conquered all the other people known as ‘populace’…” 13

Kabbalah Today

How relevant is
the Kabbalah to modern Judaism?

Although many
Jews today have become so secularized that they have forgotten most of
their own beliefs, as well as the literature which is supposed to uphold
them, observant Jews, including Conservative, Orthodox and especially
ultra-Orthodox, still consider the Kabbalah inspired by God. They
believe it stands with the Talmud as the greatest legal authority of
Judaism. In fact, passages from the Zohar are read along with the Bible
and Talmud as part of the worship service in synagogues every Saturday.

The
Concise History of Judaism describes the Zohar as “inspired
Jewish writings.” The preface to the Soncino edition of the Zohar says:
“The Zohar appeals to many Jews in a way that makes them regard it as
the most sacred of sacred books! For it mirrors Judaism as an intensely
vital religion of the spirit. More overpoweringly than any other book or
code, more even than the Bible, does it give to the Jew the conviction
of an inner, unseen spiritual universe—an eternal moral order.” (p. 12)

The same source
continues, “During the present century there has been a distinct revival
of interest…in Kabbalah, and eminent Jewish scholars have attempted to
show that these devotees of the mystic side of Jewish life and religion
were not, as is popularly supposed, half-crazy visionaries living in a
universe peopled by the figments of their own degenerate brains, but men
of intellect, scholarship and sound sense who aimed at bringing back to
Jewish organized communal life a breath of that mystic sentiment and
emotion which are the aromatic life essence of religion, and which are
indispensable to Judaism if it is to continue to play its predestined
part of bringing mankind “under the wings of the Shekinah.”” (p. 25)

The Kabbalah is
thought to be divinely inspired by many Jews because, like the Talmud,
it proceeded from the very hub of Jewry—the most eminent rabbis. Many of
the greatest Talmudists, from Ben Zakki and Maimonides through the
numerous Baal-shems and Talmudists of the 16th through 18th centuries,
even to perhaps the greatest rabbi in the world today, Rabbi Steinsaltz
of Jerusalem—all have been initiates and practitioners of Kabbalah. They
take the Kabbalah very seriously, indeed, as the Word of God.

What about the
Kabbalah’s description of Gentiles as animals who must be slaughtered
before “order” can be restored? That concept is not a minority opinion
but fundamental to how Kabbalah structures God, Israel, and the
universe. Thus, we can only assume it provides much of the motivation
for the racist laws, war crimes, and homicidal agenda of the state of
Israel today. After all, Orthodox, Kabbalah-venerating Judaism is the
official position of the government, religious hierarchy, and military
of Israel.

Know Your “Friends”

There is now an
accelerating interest among conservatives and Christians in what the
Koran teaches about “infidels.” Many are eager to discuss how the inner
teachings of Islam’s most sacred literature might help explain
international Arab terrorism.

Yet, incredibly,
the evangelical right has no interest in similar investigations into the
sacred, semi-secret teachings of Judaism. No one is curious about how
such teachings might help explain not only Israel’s notorious
mistreatment of her Arab neighbors but also Jewish power worldwide in
government, finance, and media.

This must change.
Israel is in the public domain. If Israel expects America to contribute
$5 billion annually, sustaining her as the world’s fourth greatest
military superpower, then Jews must no longer cry “Anti-semitism!”
whenever their most sacred literature, the Talmud and Zohar, are
investigated.

If America is to
keep from being pawned into even greater military and public relations
disasters in the Middle East, we must have an accurate understanding of
the beliefs of those we are committed to defend.

Yes, the bombs
that fell on Lebanon were made in America. But the hatred and racism
behind them were made in Israel.

HAVE YOU READ THE
TALMUD LATELY?

By Rev. Ted Pike

In my last e-alert, I was the
bearer of bad news: Deep within Judaism's most sacred rabbinic writings,
the Talmud and Zohar (Kabbalah), there exists the obligation to
overthrow existing Gentile and Christian society and establish a “new
Jewish order.” Such Judaic teaching powerfully diminishes the value of
Gentile lives, particularly today in Israel’s occupied territories and
Lebanon.

I was consequently vilified
by a number of readers. One asked, “Where do you get this trash?” He
said that if he needed to know the dark side of Judaism, he’d rather do
it from Mein Kampf!

The truth is that, with the
possible exception of some secular Jewish congregations, every synagogue
in the world contains the Talmud and Zohar. It’s from these works that
my assertions came. They are the two most important sources of inspired
literature for observant Jews, greatly surpassing the Bible. The Talmud
however, is the most universally read and applied.

Herman Wouk, Orthodox Jew and
famed author of The Cain Mutiny, affirms, “The Talmud is to
this day the circulating heart’s blood of the Jewish religion. Whatever
laws, customs, ceremonies we observe—whether we are Orthodox,
Conservative, Reform or merely spasmodic sentimentalists—we follow the
Talmud. It is our common law.” 1

One would think that
religious literature so centrally important to one of the world’s great
religions would be easily located in local libraries. It is certainly
easy to find the Bible or Koran.

Not so the Talmud. While the very largest municipal libraries in a state
may possess the Talmud and Zohar, they are almost always absent
elsewhere, except in synagogues. In almost every synagogue in the world,
the Talmud and Zohar loom above every other piece of literature in
authority and appreciation.

Why are library shelves
vacant of the Talmud and Zohar? Quite simply, it’s because Judaism
teaches that the law they contain was given to Jews alone and it’s wrong
for Gentiles to read that law. The Talmud says, “The goy who pries into
the law is worthy of death.” 2

The Jewish Encyclopedia
tells us, “Hence the Talmud prohibited the teaching to a Gentile of the
Torah [Talmud and Zohar] “the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob…”
R. Johanan says of one so teaching, “Such a person deserves death.”—Sanh.
59a, Hagigah.” 3

Accordingly, Jewish leaders
make it clear to Christian seminaries and scholars that they will not
tolerate published research into the Talmud’s real teachings about
Christ, Christianity, and Gentiles. Christian academics obey, terrified
of being smeared as “anti-Semites.”

In the early '80s, as part of
research for my book, Israel: Our Duty, Our Dilemma, I visited
the Judaic section of the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. to
study various versions of the Zohar, or Kabbalah.

On my first visit, I asked
the Jewish librarian where to find the Soncino English translation. He
became disturbed and replied, “I don’t think you want to read that. You
might misunderstand it.” I couldn’t believe my ears. I’m afraid I showed
my anger. He relented.

Since publication of my book
in 1984 and release of my first video documentary on this subject, “The
Other Israel,” many people, confronted with the dark side of Judaic
ethics, have rejected my message outright. Their reasoning is simple and
direct: “What Pike says can’t be true because our Christian leaders and
national media have never given us a hint of confirmation for what he
says.” A smaller number contend that I quoted out of context or, even
worse, forged documents. They think I faked the Xerox copies of the
Talmud and Zohar in the appendix of my book, to create the illusion of a
Judaic conspiracy.

Such skepticism has been
flying at me via email this week. I will therefore conclude by
reproducing a few pages from the Talmud and Zohar, displaying the
antipathy of the Talmud and Zohar toward Gentiles.

Where do I get this stuff?
See you at the Library of Congress!
